Guess I'm buying Quake again...

Damn, right for the jugular.

After reading the main comment, I was expecting some funny answers, but you just made me cry. 😭

Battletoads.

I hope the multiplayer is well populated. Q2 was my introduction to MP FPS on PC when I was a kid and solidified my love for it to this day. Would love to jump back in to some railgun-only DM servers

I played quake on the Wii using homebrew back in the day. Was kinda fun with the motion controls.

“Why make new content when you can cash in on your old content.”

It's a free update to a beloved game from 25 years ago and a first release to third most selling platform in the world for a price of a burger. If that's a cash grab I want more of these.

I wouldn't call this a cash in at all - in fact, it's now easily the best way to play Q2, with impactful (but optional) visual improvements, revamped AI, new accessibility options, both of the original expansion packs, the entire N64-exclusive campaign now available on all platforms for the first time, AND an entirely new campaign created specifically for this remaster.

There are a lot of low-effort ports out there (looking at you, Rockstar), but this ain't one of them.
